Re: Dracula Untold
I don't think this will have much to do with Vlad the Impaler. In the original novel, (which I read for the first time last month) Dracula tells a story about how his family fought in many wars and protected Transylvania/Romania over the centuries. Van Helsing later speculates that Count Dracula himself fought in those wars. From the looks of the trailer the movie will focus on those wars and how the Count came to be a vampire, which are things that aren't talked about very much in the book.
